I liked the cleanliness and friendly staff

I wish the staff were available sometimes it was hard finding them to ask where things were or how much the spa was, but overall great stay

The pool was good, maybe a bit small The food was very good (breakfast) The people working were also very nice and polite

Far location from city center

Small swimming pool but you have to pay dimly lit room Small bathroom, super small soap, no hangers The door of the homestay is locked at any time, and the staff must be asked to open it when entering and exiting.

Amazing facilities and super kind staff!

Luxurious hotel room, hot water and excellent water pressure, nice pool, welcoming environment, nicely designed interior, comfortable toilet paper (a nice subtle addition) , bathroom is nice too Convenience stores just a few blocks away (turn left, 2 blocks; turn right , 4 blocks)

A see-through sheen for a curtain; you either have to turn off the lights to change (or forget that there's no privacy and do it anyways) as well as being awoken early in the morning as the sun shines through Far away from the city center (although the taxi drivers don't price gauge you and charge you extra in this city, a nice change) Needing to ring the bell in order to enter the compound, a nuisance especially when coming back late and you have to wait to be let in (didn't take long) instead of merely entering

A hot cup of mint tea delivered to our room was very much appreciated. Good value for money. The traditional Moroccan lunch was excellent.

The room was too small.

Family Hotel, the owner done everything to receive us well

The Mimosa is somewhat a victim of its own quality in that it appears to be a 'small hotel' whereas, in fact, it is an excellent 'guest house'. The host and his family have equipped a superb house with air-conditioning, swimming pools and hotel-like facilities. The rooms are scrupulously clean and the bedding first-rate. Off-road parking is available for those that need it and the road in front has sufficient small and large taxis that I never needed to wait more than 5 minutes for a ride. Proximity to a royal palace makes the area as safe as one might wish. As a guest house, there is no 'staff' as such; family and domestic staff provide the customer service, including the meals ... and there we hit the first bump: meal timings. Breakfasts are generous and excellent but were later than I expected, starting at 0800. The evening meal really isn't really ready to start until 2100 and then it is large and traditional. For those of us who eat little and early, or fail to sleep, this needs a workaround. There is an alleged restaurant over the road but it looked dubious to me and loud, boom-boom music starts there at 2100 and goes on past midnight so ear-plugs are a good idea. Every traveller will have these, of course, and a universal sink-plug for the washbasin. That said, the family are so helpful, even giving me a lift into town at one point having been unable to satisfy my complicated, non-tourist requirements for a taxi over the phone.

I chose the Mimosa because of the long beds (I'm 1m 85) and the 24-hour 'night porter' service as I knew that I would have to leave before dawn and that this might prove difficult. It did. In spite of advising my host and some of the family on several occasions that I would need to leave at 0500, I still had to finds a means of letting myself out to meet my taxi. So, yes, I was annoyed at the time but, hey, it's Africa, get over it!
